One Way Mirror

Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched? One Way Mirror is a story about the art of people watching, built for extroverts, introverts and everyone in-between. Come and join the ritual as we re-create the true story of a man living with a one way mirror in his living room.

Tonight you will make a choice. Am I watching you? Or are you watching me?

Jonathan doesn’t live in a regular house. He has a large mirror in his living room looking out onto the world. As people walk past on the busy high street, he sees them, and they see themselves. He sees everything: people pouting, people picking noses and people phoning their mum. In his time, he’s seen 3 physical fights, 4 messy snogs and 1 genuine divorce. But what happens when he sees something he shouldn’t have?

Made with support from Elevate East, Theatre Royal Stratford East and Interactive Soup. With thanks to The Pleasance and Camden People Theatre.

Part of Soho Rising Festival 2024, a celebration of new work created by comedians, writers and performers who have taken part in our Writers’ Lab, Comedy Lab or Cabaret & Drag Lab programmes.
